Works great for connecting a computer with a standard USB-A port to a printer, scanner, multifunction center, USB hub (including one built into a monitor), 3d printer, older camera camera, Arduino, hard drive dock, or other device that uses a standard USB-B port.

The cable is only USB 2.0 speed, so some devices will be limited by that, but it's fine for its intended purpose of printers and scanners and the like.

6 feet is a nice length to connect from a PC to a printer where they don't have to be right side by side, just in the same vicinity.

The cable is thin and flexible, but it feels sturdy enough. The connectors are easy to get a grip on and there's a reasonable amount of strain relief.

$8 feels like a fair price for what you're getting.
